Laser Engraving
TECNI Ltd offers Laser engraving for both Aluminium and Stainless Steel material up to a size of 110mm square. The Laser engraver works by burning the top layer of the surface leaving a permanent etch which is easy to read from a distance. It is suitable for marking serial numbers, traceability codes, branding and working load limits. This is the best option for when aesthetics are important.

Dot EngravingDot Marking is an alternative to Laser engraving. This can be used for Copper as well as Aluminium and Stainless Steel. Dot-engraving punches a deep impression into the material making the identification hard wearing and is perfect for lifting gear and cable assemblies. It is suitable for marking serial numbers, traceability codes and Working Load Limits. This is the best option for when durability is a concern.

Material Analysis
We at TECNI use the Thermo Scientific™ Niton™ XL5 Metal Alloy Analyser to verify the material of all stock booked into our system.
The Niton™ XL5 Metal Alloy Analyser is the world’s smallest hand-held analyser. It rapidly determines elemental composition and alloy grade accurately producing the full analysis of the material
composition whilst being completely non-destructive.

Strength Testing up to 250kgWith our Mecmesin Multitest 2.5Kn we can perform cycle and straight line pull tests up to 250kgs to give you complete confidence in your assemblies. If it is a proof load or destruction test that you require, this machine can give you a full report showing the exact result or point of failure. Printed certificates including graphs are available upon request.

Strength Testing up to 10 tonneWith our vertical test machine we can proof load cable assemblies & lifting equipment to 10t. This type of test can be vital in some applications & inspections. We can also conduct destruction tests depending on the assembly.

Wire Rope AnnealingWire rope annealing fuses the end of the wire rope and prevents fraying. TECNI can electro fuse cable ends from sizes 1mm to 14mm. This type of annealing is great for non preformed ropes and ropes which do not have end terminations.

Quality Control

Our manufacturing processes and procedures, as well as the quality of our cable and wire rope end fittings are continually monitored, quality checked and improved in line with our LRQA approved ISO9001:2015 Quality Management System.
